office door for one of my former bosses. She combined massive incompetence with an enormous ego and a truly obnoxious personality and a complete inability to comprehend that she was frequently wrong (along with a serious case of the uglies, but that wasn't her fault - she was born that way)

Maybe not so funny. It think it was a Polish writer who speculated that Hitler had made a bargain with the devil. How his hatred for his father had diverted his natural talents into art, where they could not be fulfilled, and then into politics, where his harangues, which had simply annoyed his fellow soldiers,found a rabid following. Where he marched from success to success, and where his enemies played into his hands. How several plots misfired, not only the famous assassination attempt in 1944, but earlier ones. How when in November, 1039, after he had bullied the Army into launching an attack in the West that was almost certain to fail, the rains came and forced him to cancel. Then after raising him to the heights, the devil let him fall into the pit. But , oh, the cost to mankind.

If you think about it, Hitler was nothing more than a homeless bum living on the streets of Vienna who came *this* close to ruling the entire world. So yes, I think something else was going on there as well.

“After the family fled the house, a police officer took a photo of it from the outside. It was empty, but the photo appeared to show someone standing in the window. “

Ah yes, the “fled”, a “police officer” took a photo of the house (but not the gravity-defying devil child).

Hoax. They always are. The only devil needing exorcising in men is that which is in their own nature. Like UFO’s, there is never ever any evidence of these things, and there never will be, except for people claiming they saw something - often a “priest” or a “police officer” or someone else assumed to be beyond reproach.
